New Skin: BlueMCE2

2) The second screen shot illustrates the overlap of the clock and date panels on the main screen. I believe this is only a problem when a combination of days and months with long names are used.

ok, after doing some searching on this . I was able to duplicate it by setting my puters clock back a day. Here's the fix for the long date in the clock panel, i'll pass this along to dottore as well. The zip has the gbpvr folders structure for the BlueMCE2 skin directory

4) The fourth screen shot illustrates another aesthetic issue on the Search Guide screen. Specifically, there isn't an underlay (?) present as there usually is with most other unhighlited menu buttons/options.

hmm, my search guide looks like this as default, i don't see a way to edit the underlays... i haven't had my coffee yet tho.

Wow! You guys are awesome! Way to collaborate on this!

Here are my changes to the weather plug-in.

new version on the wiki:

added jeffs and dankas changes
added some kind of alternating background to the forecast in the weather-plugin (for daphatty)
added new popups to the weather plugin and common dialogs.

enjoy!

Excellent work everyone! You guys are really doing a fine job with this skin. The new weather background is PERFECT!

I finally remembered something I wanted to point out while browsing through this latest version. Have any of you noticed that the placement of the Blue and Yellow buttons (My Videos, My Music) are reversed? The yellow button is on the left and the blue button is on the right. At least, they are when I compare them to my 45 button hauppauge remote. (I can't remember what the 34 button remote looks like.)

More updates for the video archive and music player plug-ins. These include some features for the next release, like up/down arrows for all lists to indicate when the list can be scrolled up or down to get to additional entries. I will post the updated release some time this week. These skins will work fine with the current release as well.

updated....

you bluemce2-users are ready for the next release of jeffs plugins ;-)

@daphatty: i don't really know what you mean....the buttons are placed, where they make sense, it does not depend on the placement on the remote.

[Danka]

daphatty,

you might need this update for your long date format again, think maybe it got overwritten in the last update or two... I had just noticed it on my gbpvr today

i sent it along to dottore as well, for the wiki!

oops, it goes in the panels directory...under BlueMCE2 skin
